This car is usually cited as the oldest surviving Mini.
It was built in early May 1959 and was used as a press car.
These Minis were originally badged as Morris Mini Minor or Austin Seven, before becoming known as Austin Mini.
Two Austin prototypes from April 1959 are in Japan so, technically, it is the oldest Morris Mini Minor in the UK.
